Hi there,

Quick question for you guys.

I have just had my MY01 Wrx in yesterday for a full catless exhaust system, with Downpipe etc. and a K&N induction kit fitted.

What sort of horse power would I have now ????

Cheers

Phil.

 

When you say full decat, did you have the up-pipe changed as well?

Changing the up-pipe, down pipe, 2 piece centre and back box should see you in the region of 240 - 250 bhp. Sounds great as well

Sorry cant be more specific, have you checked the dyno's page to see if anyone with the same spec has actaully had the bhp recorded?

Hi,

Havent changed the UP Pipe, but did also put an induction kit in.....just wondering how much it all gives.

thanks.

Phil.

 

now you need the ecutek re-map !!!!!!!!!!

 

Yes, thats what's next allright......just want to enjoy this power / sound increase for a while first, while I try and fix my melted credit card.

You must get the uppipe done it makes so much differance



Mark my02 full decat and ppp

 

Have a Uk97 Turbo with full decat and blitz induction system. Recently recorded at 249bhp.

What kind of money is the ecutek remap and what power increases can you expect?

 

I am in the same position. My01 with turbo back decat, now looking to change up pipe and then Ecutek. Can anyone recommend supplier/dealer in North Notts, South Yorks, Derbys area who can supply and fit up pipe?

 

Nuclear,

Which induction kit have you had fitted.
I haven't been able to find a K&N Kit for the MY01.
Cheers

Martin its a K&N induction Kit with STi trumpet and fitting kit.
Did you try Graham Goode Racing ??

Phil.

 

RLE,
You cannot have an ecutek remap as these are for MY99 onwards, your only option is a link ecu or the likes and these are not exactly cheap

Thanks Tony. How I'm glad that we have knowledgeable people on here! Dont have to look an idiot now.

 

Alright, I am in the process of getting a full de-cat system and I thought all you needed was a down-pipe, centre section and back-box. Also, why do you need a re-map and what does it do?

Cheers

Jake
First let me say i am no expert.
The ecu is mapped for a standard exhuast with cats.
To get the best peformance from a de-catted exhaust you need to
get the chip remapped.

My car is an MY98 with just scoobysport backbox and centre.
I have been wondering what next as i dont really fancy replacing
the down pipe just yet. And the ecu tek dont work on an MY98

Up-pipe is only a big issue on MY01+ where the OEM up-pipe has a cat. For classic scoobs, a full decat only needs downpipe & centre.

With up-pipe, full system and ecutek, my MY02 gives 284bhp/272lbft, with a lot wider power band than OEM. Much fun!

 

Would you say that you had to get a re-map or would it be a waste of time getting a de-cat system and not getting a re-map done. I have heard they are quite expensive.

lots of dyno graphs...

 

hades

Where did you get your ecutek from and how much was it? I also have a full decat and panel filter, so this is my next step.

ScoobySport offered to do a postal remap for £750 or there abouts.

cheers

 

Taylor - Mine was from Power Engineering, something like £650+VAT IIRC, which included a few dyno runs to check it was behaving and give the power curve. Still a long way from Aberdeenshire, I'm afraid!

J8ke - Articles I've read give mixed results - sometimes you don't get more power without a remap (see Autospeed article), though more often you do. Either way, you will get earlier turbo spool up - i.e. better power at 2500-3500 rpm. I got quite a significant improvement before the remap by just decatting up-pipe, full exhaust (APS sports cat) and porting the OEM headers. The remap made it smoother, more responsive, pull much harder around spool up and at 6000rpm+, and gave (I'd guess) about an extra 30ish bhp.
